Nice Camera

I prefer this GoPro hero 9 black over the hero 8 version simply for being able to line up your shots on the lens side. It is waterproof which is pretty cool. I've attached a video that was shot with the Hero 9 black for a drum playthrough.

Rated 3/5

Eh.... I like it... but -

I've had several GoPros over the years and wanted this for it's resolution. But this *9* has locked up on me twice now from getting hot while recording. If it keeps it up, I'll take my issues to GoPro directly to see how they resolve it.

I've played with the super slow-motion setting and that's cool. I just have reservations about this model. It also seems to go thru the stock battery pretty quickly.
Music background: Using this for camping and nature research
